Mixcloud are proud to announce an exciting new competition offering one person the chance to DJ at the Royal wedding party. After several months of careful consideration, the organisers have chosen Mixcloud to help find the best DJ on earth to play the party.

“This is an exciting step for us, and builds on our experience in running large competitions to play international festivals and parties from Miami to Ibiza” said Mixcloud Co-founder, Nico Perez. “We’re very happy the Royal Family have bestowed this privilege upon us.”

For talented DJs, radio presenters and Podcasters, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to put together the perfect playlist to entertain the Royal couple and their guests on this auspicious occasion. To enter the competition, they must simply upload a “Cloudcast” (DJ mix set, Radio show, or Podcast) to Mixcloud containing the music they feel would befit this event.

“The Royal family are looking for someone who can balance the musical interests of state leaders, international Royalty and celebrities” said Perez “while at the same time getting the famous crowd to shake their hips and drop their walking sticks.”

Following a rigorous selection process by Mixcloud and the wedding organisers, the winner will be announced a week before the big day. The prize will include first class flights, 3 nights at a landmark hotel and 2 invitations to the wedding reception where the winner will play at the party of their lifetime.
